Jean in Newcastle Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I received a call from a friend. She wanted to know the date and time that we would be available for a party. The idea was that they were going to choose the date based on our availability and would then invite others once it was set. We came up with a good date and time for both of us. She told me that she would then send me an invite so that I would know the address of the party. I've gotten the invite. I don't have to RSVP, right, since we discussed the date and time personally?

Eagle Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I would email a short note saying you received the invitation and look forward to the party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcadia Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 But not the place :). I would RSVP that I received the invite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiden Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I would send an email. Many times, people collect RSVPs all in one place, and when they're counting up guests, if the RSVP isn't there with the others, they'll forget all about it, even if they do know that you're coming.

gardenmom5 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 email and rsvp - just so you can say you did if someone get's confused and doesn't check stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unsinkable Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Yes. RSVP. It's rarely the wrong thing to do. It probably would have taken less effort to RSVP than to wonder if you should RSVP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I wouldn't be worrying about sending an rsvp at all. There is nothing wrong with sending one of course but you planned the date together to fit your schedule so she already knows you are coming.

Rachel Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 If the friend is close enough that she called to set the date based on my schedule, I would send a quick text or call and confirm I will be there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobie Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 If she sent you an invite, I'd go ahead and RSVP and tell her how excited you are. That way she knows you received the invite and still are on the same page. Plus, warm fuzzies and all. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I would still RSVP as a courtesy. We were on vacation for over a week and I just found an invitation after I got home. The deadline to respond was the day I read it.....too late to send a card. I just texted the host and told her that was my RSVP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Confirming is a nice thing. A friend had asked about our annual Christmas party (this Sunday. No body make any messes while they cook, ok?) so she knew the date and said she would be there. It was great to get a text the other day confirming she got the invite and was still coming. Made me feel more secure. Have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
